Sales tax ballot questions worth millions in Missouri

In St. Louis County alone there are 25 cities, from Chesterfield to Florissant, asking voters for approval.

Some of the communities locally with the measure on the ballot include Billings, Cassville, Coney Island, Hurley, Monett, and Reeds Spring. 

The tax, the same as the community’s local sales tax rate, would only apply to out-of-state vendors.
